Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

The beach part was great not "hike"

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

The description of the Falls "hike" should be reworded to "casual stroll". All the interesting parts that might be qualified as hikes were barred as off limits for falling rock or just closed off. Also, the change in elevation was laughable. It was more like going to a park.

The waterfall actually had water, but not enough water yet for swimming, which was teh main point of it. That part was very underwhelming.

The snorkeling on teh beach was great. Amazing area and great knowledgeable staff/tour guides. highly recommend that part.

We started the day being scared of sharks and ended up wanting to pat them! Probably not a good idea though as they have big teeth!

You have a list called "10 things to do before I die" and you've just marked one thing as 'done' - this is what this tour feels like. Do it, and you won't regret. Just don't forget a pill of Bonine and waterproof camera with a long strap that you can put around your neck. If your camera is not waterproof, take it anyway, because you can take great pictures even from the boat.

Discover Oahu’s North Shore from Waikiki with The Surf Bus - Snorkel, Kayak, SUP & Waimea Falls

Worth It

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I really enjoyed this trip, we didn't rent a car in Oahu and this was a great way to see the North Shore. We learned a great deal of Hawaiian history on the way up. And the town and Waimeia Beach are incredible. We snorkeled and swam in the waterfall at waimeia (?), it was a cool day but the water was temperate and so fresh - if you go to the waterfall swim in the lake surrounding it - its really wonderful. Bonzai Pipeline had no waves though so I'll have to go back in the winter.

This was one of the most amazing things I have ever done. I was kind of nervous but the staff makes you feel at ease. There were so many sharks and you get at least a half hour in the tank. It's a nice view from the boat when the other group is in the cage. Sharks are amazing and beautiful creatures. Make sure you take some Gravol before you go. I got very seasick and I usually don't ever get sick. I will definately be doing this activity again when I come to Hawaii.

My wife and I loved the shark encounter! Exhilarating but not dangerous. The staff was knowledgeable and good spirited. We are in our mid 50's - have done lots of stuff and this was truly unique. Besides loads of sharks we also saw a couple whales. Recommend you bring a water proof camera [taking digital videos and pulling frames for desired stills works best], go early because the water is usually calmer, and go on an empty stomach. The time in the cage went too fast me!

Complete adrenaline rush!!! Would definitely go again and again!!! This coming from first timers!!! Although the water was very choppy, you felt safe in the cage. Just remember to be on the safe side, keep your feet and hands in the cage. You spend more than enough time with the sharks. The guides were friendly and informative. As we were leaving, a booby bird flew in and decided to hang out on the cage. We were also able to see a school of dolphins swimming by. We never did get anything to drink so, you might want to bring a bottle of water along. They also sell a Shark Encounter T-shirt which is pretty cool to wear and it let's everyone know of your experience. Remember to bring a waterproof camera as you'll want to take up-close pictures of the sharks!!!

乗馬体験(0.5～2時間)　2歳から参加OKの子供向けコースやサンセット、貸切ランチ付きなど選べるコースで広大な牧場を満喫！＜ガンストック牧場／現地集合＞

This is my fourth horseback riding location on Oahu. オアフ島では乗馬4箇所目で～す。

Reviewed by: ハワイでは必ず乗馬ファミリー

We are a family that always goes horseback riding in Hawaii. So far, we have ridden in one place on Kauai, three places on Oahu, one place on Molokai, one place on Maui, and one place on the Big Island. This year, we were planning to go horseback riding on Lanai, but we learned that Gunstock Ranch started offering rides last year. Considering the time saved by not having to travel to another island, we quickly booked an afternoon ride online.

After passing through Kahuku from the North Shore, we spotted the sign on the right after about five minutes! We turned right and climbed a bit up the mountain, arriving at a ranch that was completely untouched by tourism. Immediately, friendly dogs and sheep came to greet us. We made our way past the horses that were grazing in the back and found the guides, all of whom were women. After chatting, we learned that they were Mrs. Smith, the ranch owner, her daughter, and a part-time worker from Colorado who came to study at a university in Hawaii.

Although they didn't speak any Japanese, it felt like visiting a neighbor's house for check-in, creating a very homey atmosphere. As we started riding, it felt as if we had chartered the entire experience just for our family. We passed through the rodeo practice area and the training area for the horses, navigating through trees that made us feel like we were in an orchard. While riding, we picked and ate guava, and after climbing for an hour, we reached a viewpoint overlooking the North Shore, Kahuku, and the northeastern sea. We took commemorative photos and videos with this beautiful scenery as our backdrop, watching the sunset behind the mountains as it illuminated the southern part of Kahuku while chatting with our guide on the way back down to the ranch center in 30 minutes.

I wouldn't recommend this for first-time overseas riders, but for those who are tired of touristy horseback riding and can speak a little English, I think this is the best place on Oahu. We were treated to a beautiful sunset that made us forget we were even on Oahu.

ハワイでは必ず乗馬をするファミリー家族です。今までにカウアイ島で1箇所、オアフ島で3箇所、モロカイ島で1箇所、マウイ島で1箇所、ハワイ島で1箇所、今年はラナイ島で乗馬でもしようと計画していたところ、ここガンストック牧場で昨年からやり始めたとの情報を得、わざわざ離島まで行って乗馬することを考えればかなりの時間の節約と考えさっそくネットでアフタヌーン乗馬を予約。ノースからカフクを通り過ぎ約5分ぐらいで右手に看板発見！右折して山側にすこし登るとまったく観光化されていない牧場のたたずまい、早速人懐こいワンちゃんや羊がよって来て歓迎ムード、奥へ放牧されている馬さんたちをよけながら先に進みｶﾞｲﾄﾞさん？たちを発見、みなさん女性でお話をしたら牧場主のスミス婦人とそのお嬢さんとｺﾛﾗﾄﾞ州からハワイの大学へ来たアルバイトのお嬢さんの3人でした。まったく日本語は通じませんがまるでとなりの家へ遊びに行きチェックインも、アットホームな感じ、早速乗馬し我々家族だけのまるでチャーターしたみたいな一行は一路ロデオ練習場や馬を乗馬用になれさせる練習場を通り過ぎ山へ谷へ果樹園と思わせる木々の中を通り過ぎ馬上からグアバをもぎとり食べながら又山へ、1時間も登ると北はノースショアーからカフクそして北東の海海、この景色をバックに記念写真とビデオを撮り、山陰にかくれた太陽の夕日が先のカフクの南を照らすのを見ながらガイドとおしゃべりをしながら牧場中心地へ30分で下山。初めての海外乗馬の方にはお勧め出来ないが、観光乗馬に飽きた方、少し英語がお話できる方にはオアフ島では1番良いところと思います。オアフ島にいる事を忘れてしまいそうなきれいなサンセットを見させていただきました。

This was an awesome experience. You can't get any closer than this to live sharkes in the oceans. I could have reached out and touch them - but highly discouraged to do so.

This is an awesome experience and a great way to view sharks in thier own natural environment. Very graceful and peaceful to watch.

Awesome Time in North Shore

This was our first trip to Hawaii, and we wanted to make sure that we don't miss North Shore, but didn't want to take a typical sightseeing tour on a huge bus with 50 other people. This tour turns out to be a great one with a lot of personal touch. We were able to enjoy a full day on Waimea Bay, just relaxing, snorkeling, swimming, etc. A perfect day on the north shore. We were also able to check out the Haleiwa Town to do some shopping. There are a lot of artists living there to sell their beautiful arts. Highly recommended!

We decided to try the ambassador package which included premium seats to the luau and the all day tour with a guide. I am so glad we decided on this. The food at the luau was ok, but the show was incredible! The tour around the grounds was fantastic too, because our tour guide, Cousin Bianca, knew exactly when all the shows were starting and when we would need to get there in order to get decent seats! We even got this incredble dessert to go along with it and they were so good! Some sort of fruity type of ice cream. YUM! I highly recommend this!

This was by far the best adventure I've ever been on and I'd do it again in a heartbeat, which is very different from most touristy things I've done in Hawaii where once is enough.

The crew was great, the sharks were plentiful and the gear provided was excellent. Don't forget to bring your camera because you will want to capture every moment out there. If you don't have an underwater camera, you can buy one from the crew.

This one of the biggest thrills I have ever experienced, and there has been alot, we have traveled all over the world and this is most definately in the top 5 for us. To have a shark 8-12 feet long inches from your face, let alone 15-20 of them within 20 feet of you is extreme, then add in some good sized swells to add to the excitement, I wouldn't miss it again, ever, a must for anyone who needs a thrill.

If you've seen the shark specials on the discovery channel this will be very similar except for the fact that YOU are up close and personal with the sharks. Bring waterproof camera for great shots. I didn't have one but I brought my live action camera and filmed some great footage from on the boat.
